A future potential problem in 1A sports is that there may not be enough schools field teams to fill a playoff bracket. Here is a proposal that I think would work (I can already here the screams). Do not have a rigid classification system. Not every sport in a school would be in the same class. Take the number of schools fielding a sport and divide by 8. That gives you the class they would participate in. Let's look at a school like Eastern Randolph. In a sport such as football where many smaller schools don't offer football, then they would probably drop to 2A. In basketball where it seems every school fields a team, then they would probably be a 3A . Conferences would not need to change as we already have split conferences. Consider it and then ready aim fire.
